Exposure Compensation

Page 45 highlights

EXPOSURE COMPENSATION When you deliberately want to make your shot brighter or darker, turn the exposure compensation dial instead of using the camera's standard automatic exposure. 1. Set the exposure compensation dial to the desired setting. Notes: •When the shutter release button is pressed halfway, +/- will be displayed in the viewfinder. • Exposure compensation is possible up to ±2 EV in 1/2-EV increments. 46 • When the exposure compensation setting is adjusted in the Long Time mode, only flash emission is corrected. • Pressing the FULL AUTO button does not restore the exposure compensation dial's ±0 setting. Always be sure to turn back the dial after using exposure compensation. • The flash power is also compensated according to the selected exposure compensation setting. • When negative color film is used, the exposure compensation effect may be almost indistinguishable in prints. • In the Aperture-Preferred Auto mode, +/blinks when the subject is outside the range within which exposure can be compensated.
